biochar
Biochar is a carbon-rich soil amendment created from biomass pyrolysis that gradually becomes biologically active when exposed to soil microorganisms. In plant science, biochar is significant because it improves soil structure, enhances water and nutrient retention, and promotes beneficial microbial communities that support plant growth and nutrient cycling.
